Indifferent to Our Antiauitx.

The United States alone has been COM
paratively indifferent to her own antiq-
uity. Mr. Peabody left sufficient endow-
ments, whose legitimate purpose would
seem to be to collect and preserve Ameri-
can ANTIQUITIES; but neither in Salem,
Cambridge nor New Haven is there any
remarkable collections of the wonderful
remains of extinct races discovered on our
own soil. The remarkable private collec-
lions existing are being gradually re
moved to Europe, so that now, it is said,
a student who would know thoroughly
what American antiquities are must visit
certain private English collections in
provincial towns of Great Britain. One
exception alone must be made, the Smith
sonian collection at Washington, but even
this admirable collection is not complete.

indians at Haskell institute.

The native traits predominant still, al
though they are far from their tribal in
fiuences. StOicism is q marked quality,
and one that has come to them from their
ancestry, and is not the result of teaching.
"They never cry out" said the superin-
tendent, "hOwever much they may be in
iured Yesterday that boy there ran a
pitchfork through his foot. 1t must have
been intensely painful, but he never even
whimpeFed. His wound must hurt to
day, but he is at work from his own choice,
and there is no expression of suffering on
his face. That other boy-with his leg done
up in bandageS, day or two since spilled
pan of scalding water over his leg, and
and must have suffered unreasonable
pain; but he gave no sign, and has vo1un-
tarily gone on with his work as usual.
The sick in the hospital are equally stol-
cal to pain; no matter how much they
suffer, they endure it like sick dogs. In
his agony sick boy will bite through his
lips, and never allow sound to escape
him They take their Medicine quietly
and always as if grateful for the service.
In speaking of the sick, the superintend-
ent remarked that the main diseases with
which they are attacked are scrotulous
in their nature, and that they have ten
dency to weak lungs, with the conse-
uuence that the deaths are large-nearIy
or quite 80 per cent. of the whOle-and
that they die rapidly and with apparent
ease.-Lawrence (Kan.) Cor. Chicago

So SAYS Bob Burdette.

The Medical Record discusses the question,
..How to Sleep" and gives long, scientific
formula for inducing sleep. What's the mat
ter with going TO church:
BETTER SAILOR THAN COOK.
Gen. Saigo, commander in chief of the
Japanese navy, has been inspecting the navy
wards of this country. We have eaten the
generals famous pudding, and while we &c
sire to avoid precipitating the two nations
into war, we must say that it has more stick
ness and fewer taste than any other table

MAN.

What a queer combination of cheek and per
versity.
Insolence pride, CAB, impotence, vanity,
Jealousy hate, scOrn, baseness, insanity,
Honor truth, wisdom, virtue, urbanity,
Is that whimsical biped called man!
Who can fathOm the depths of his innate de-
pravity?
To-day he's all gayety, tomorrow all gravity
For blowing his own horn, he has a propensity,
Even under clouds of singular density.
Oh, mystical clay-bank called man!
He can be the source of beastly brutality,
Be modest and meek, or indulge in hilarity,
Don airs and graces of sanity totality,
Or equal the devil in daring rascality,
This curious enigma called man.

postage stamp collecting mania, as well
as the new industry-the trade in postage
stamps-it created are celebrating their
twenty-fifth jubilees this year. 1t is an
error to suppose that this passion" has
gradually subsidized; in Germany, GER

Now the summer seasons ended,
For the leaves are turning brown,
And it's now that sweet Miss Nellie
Once again returns to town,
And as usual joins the forces
OF the giddy GOthamite,
Engaging in the balls and parties
That comprise the social fight.
She could dance from night till morning
With the gayest of the gay,
Making conquests by the dozen
In IL most cOquettish way.
To dress for balls she does delight in
And for it she has a knack,
But she sticks to the primitive fashion
She goes bare back. Chip in Judge.

polla. he has expressed strong desire for
reconciliation between Church and State and
has proposed terms which King Humbcrt does
not consider unreasonable.
II is at this point that our Roman CORE
spondent parts company with the piuveyors OF
news for the London press. They have as
serted that the Pope in his letter to Cardinal
Rampolla reaflirmed the pretensions OF Plus
TX. to temporal sovereignty and practically
nullified his professions respecting peace be-
tween Church and State. Our correspondent
states that while the Vatican adheres firmly
to the principle of territorial sovereignty, it
has virtually abandoned the idea OF retaining
:.s former possessions. 1t considers certain
amount Sf temporal power necessity, but IS
willing to accept restricted sovereignty over
n part OF Rome and to make peace with the
State. Many new facts in support oi this
nosition are presented and valid reasons arc
furnished for a belief that IIumbert and Leo
NH. are cooperating in effccting permanent
settlement of the Roman question. A basis
for compromise has been proposed, and with
the aid of a Clerical party in the Chamber OF
Deputies to be vigorously recruited in the
next elections, peace may be ncgotiated. If
these hopes are fulfilled Leo XIII. will be
known in history as the most statesmanlikc
of modern Pontiffs for adapting the Church
to the conditions of civilization instead oil
pcrsevering in the vain endeavor to perpctuatc
the political system of Gregory VII, Innocent
iii. and Boniface VIII.
